I wanted to reclaim it, just like we\u2019ve done with other words that were once used against us, and turn it into something empowering. It was also a way of paying tribute to that era and its artists. The Cotton Club in Harlem was the epicenter of that musical movement during the 1920s and 1930s. This collection is really a tribute to that place and its cultural legacy.<\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>The collection highlights powerful fabrics, from snake to leopard, faux fur and denim\u2026 How do you want people to feel when they wear these pieces?<\/b><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want them to feel amazing when wearing this collection. To feel stylish, confident, powerful. Basically, I want them to feel exactly the way I did while creating it.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><b>In its early days, jungle music was born out of a spirit of rebellion. Do you see parallels between that energy and your approach to fashion today?<\/b><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely. I\u2019ve always been driven by that same spirit of rebellion. I&#8217;m thinking out of the box, I&#8217;m challenging conventions, I&#8217;m doing things that might be considered off-limits, until they become the norm, or even a trend. Jazz conveyed that energy at its origins, and it\u2019s a type of energy I&#8217;m trying to channel through fashion.<\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc2f76d&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/gallery\" class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc2f99b&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a29cbdc2f99b\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"666\" height=\"1000\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"741998\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/25AW_BR_ASAP-Rocky_October_1726_RGB.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-741998\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc2fca4&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a29cbdc2fca4\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"741996\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/25AW_BR_ASAP-Rocky_October_0657_RGB.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-741996\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">The A$AP Rocky x Puma collection.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\">A new collaboration with Puma<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>After a first collaboration focusing on Formula 1 in 2024, you\u2019re teaming up with Puma once again, this time in a completely different universe. How did your creative vision evolve from one project to another?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that my personal experiences always find their way into my collections. This time, it was really about collective work, pushing each other to go further and explore new directions together. With Puma, we\u2019ve built a true creative synergy. Now, we\u2019ve found a formula that works, a common language.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>With the myriad prints and inspirations, this collection seems to go against the standardised aesthetic that dominates fashion today. Was that your way of asserting individuality in the face of the industry\u2019s growing standardisation?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, definitely. We were just talking about how, when someone wears a full runway look without changing a thing, it often shows a lack of personal style. I like to mix things up, without paying attention to the brand, colour, season, or collection. When it comes to style, you have to dare to combine, experiment, and express yourself in your own way.<\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc30144&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a29cbdc30144\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AAP-Rocky-&#xA9;-Bfa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-742152\" style=\"width:667px;height:auto\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A$AP Rocky \u00a9 courtesy of BFA \/ Puma.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201c<em>I truly believe Matthieu Blazy is the best designer of our generation.<\/em>\u201d &#8211; A$AP Rocky<\/h2><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>Among the designers you admire, you have mentioned Raf Simons in your track <i>RAF<\/i> (2017), as well as designers Jil Sander and Ann Demeulemeester in <i>Fashion Killa<\/i> (2013).

What does a city like Paris reflect your personality as a creative?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\">Paris has always held a special place for me. It was one of the first places where figures like <strong>Peggy Guggenheim<\/strong> helped build a bridge between the Black artists from Harlem &#8211; musicians, painters, actors &#8211; and the rest of the world. It was there that they finally received the recognition, respect, and love they deserved. Legends like <strong>Louis Armstrong<\/strong> found a real resonance in Paris. There\u2019s always been a strong bond between Parisians and New Yorkers, a cultural and artistic exchange that still inspires me today.<\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>You\u2019re often described as a fashion icon. What is your approach when it comes to putting together a wardrobe and daily looks?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Honestly, I&#8217;m very spontaneous. I never really plan my outfits ahead, it all depends on my mood. Some days I want to keep it simple. A pair of jeans and sneakers, and I\u2019m out the door. Other days, I feel like wearing a three-piece suit. For me, it\u2019s all about energy.<\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc30d2e&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a29cbdc30d2e\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/25AW_BR_ASAP-Rocky_October_4123_RGB.jpg\" alt=\"The A$AP Rocky x Puma collection.\" class=\"wp-image-742007\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The A$AP Rocky x Puma collection.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201c<em>I\u2019ve always admired the dark aesthetic of designers like Rick Owens or Raf Simons<\/em>.\u201d &#8211; A$AP Rocky<\/h2><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>Do you think that fashion still holds a subversive role. Can it still serve as a form of resistance against established norms?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For me, seeing fashion as a form of resistance has become a bit more complex. Nowadays, anyone can go on TikTok, Instagram, or X, read a few things about a brand, and suddenly think they\u2019re an expert. The industry is saturated because everyone wants to be original, different, alternative, or rebellious.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>You often add a storytelling to your collaborations. What story did you want to tell through this new collection with Puma?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The message I wanted to convey with this collection was about transformation. The power to take something that was once seen as negative or derogatory and turn it into something positive. That\u2019s exactly what we did with jungle music and the prints in this collection.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>Do you plan on taking your collaboration with Puma to a more experimental level?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\">For the future of my collaboration with Puma, I want to bring colours back. I\u2019ve always admired the dark aesthetic of designers like <strong>Rick Owens<\/strong> or <strong>Raf Simons<\/strong>, but I want to move away from that moodboard. If you look at my collections for <strong>Ray-Ban<\/strong> or <strong>Moncler<\/strong>, they\u2019re very colourful. That\u2019s the direction I want to take with Puma next year. I want to move toward something bold, vibrant, and full of life.<\/p><\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a29cbdc3116d&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a29cbdc3116d\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/25AW_BR_ASAP-Rocky_October_3807_RGB.jpg\" alt=\"The A$AP Rocky x Puma collection.\" class=\"wp-image-742012\"\/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The A$AP Rocky x Puma collection.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201c<em>Working on a Spike Lee film and walking the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival was amazing<\/em>.\u201d &#8211; A$AP Rocky<\/h2><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>Has fatherhood influenced your fashion choices?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Becoming a father has definitely influenced my personal style. When I design for others, I don\u2019t necessarily try to make something that reflects me 100%, because my taste is pretty specific. More often than not, a trend only really takes shape once I\u2019ve shown people how to wear or style a piece. That\u2019s also why runway shows are important &#8211; they demonstrate how creations can translate into real life. But my personal style is different and doesn\u2019t always reflect the aesthetic I develop in my collections.<br\/><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>You have recently worked with Spike Lee, and your appearance on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival caused quite a stir. How did you experience it as an actor?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\">I see myself as a man of the arts, a true Renaissance man. Working on a <strong>Spike Lee<\/strong> film and walking the red carpet at <strong>Cannes<\/strong> was amazing. At the end of the day, it\u2019s all part of the same creative universe. Whether it\u2019s music, fashion, or cinema, it\u2019s all connected.<\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p class=\"p1\"><strong>Can your fans still expect the release of your album <i>Don\u2019t Be Dumb<\/i>\u00a0in 2025?<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be honest, I don\u2019t want to talk about release dates anymore. I\u2019d rather let the music speak for itself. One day, you\u2019ll wake up and see what\u2019s coming up. I was a bit foolish giving dates last time\u2026 Today, I want to make it clear.
